The beauty of science is that it believes in nothing and questions everything. I get evolution. I understand it. But nothing should end there. We should still question it. This is how science advances. It is continually questioned. If evolution was simply accepted and never questioned, we would not have an understanding of genetic mutation. It would have been simply been written off as evolution, which today has proven to be incorrect.
